+
+## Overview
+
+This collector monitors Systemd units state.
+
+
+
+
+This collector is supported on all platforms.
+
+This collector supports collecting metrics from multiple instances of this integration, including remote instances.
+
+
+### Default Behavior
+
+#### Auto-Detection
+
+This integration doesn't support auto-detection.
+
+#### Limits
+
+The default configuration for this integration does not impose any limits on data collection.
+
+#### Performance Impact
+
+The default configuration for this integration is not expected to impose a significant performance impact on the system.
+
+
+## Metrics
+
+Metrics grouped by *scope*.
+
+The scope defines the instance that the metric belongs to. An instance is uniquely identified by a set of labels.
+
+
+
+### Per unit
+
+These metrics refer to the systemd unit.
+
+Labels:
+
+| Label | Description |
+|:-----------|:----------------|
+| unit_name | systemd unit name |
+
+Metrics:
+
+| Metric | Dimensions | Unit |
+|:------|:----------|:----|
+| systemd.service_unit_state | active, inactive, activating, deactivating, failed | state |
+| systemd.socket_unit_state | active, inactive, activating, deactivating, failed | state |
+| systemd.target_unit_state | active, inactive, activating, deactivating, failed | state |
+| systemd.path_unit_state | active, inactive, activating, deactivating, failed | state |
+| systemd.device_unit_state | active, inactive, activating, deactivating, failed | state |
+| systemd.mount_unit_state | active, inactive, activating, deactivating, failed | state |
+| systemd.automount_unit_state | active, inactive, activating, deactivating, failed | state |
+| systemd.swap_unit_state | active, inactive, activating, deactivating, failed | state |
+| systemd.timer_unit_state | active, inactive, activating, deactivating, failed | state |
+| systemd.scope_unit_state | active, inactive, activating, deactivating, failed | state |
+| systemd.slice_unit_state | active, inactive, activating, deactivating, failed | state |
+
+

+## Setup
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+No action required.
+
+### Configuration
+
+#### File
+
+The configuration file name for this integration is `go.d/systemdunits.conf`.
+
+
+You can edit the configuration file using the `edit-config` script from the
+Netdata [config directory](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/netdata-agent/configuration.md#the-netdata-config-directory).
+
+```bash
+cd /etc/netdata 2>/dev/null || cd /opt/netdata/etc/netdata
+sudo ./edit-config go.d/systemdunits.conf
+```
+#### Options
+
+The following options can be defined globally: update_every, autodetection_retry.
+
+
+<details><summary>Config options</summary>
+
+| Name | Description | Default | Required |
+|:----|:-----------|:-------|:--------:|
+| update_every | Data collection frequency. | 1 | no |
+| autodetection_retry | Recheck interval in seconds. Zero means no recheck will be scheduled. | 0 | no |
+| include | Systemd units filter. | *.service | no |
+| timeout | System bus requests timeout. | 1 | no |
+
+##### include
+
+Systemd units matching the selector will be monitored.

+```
+
+
+</details>
+
+#### Examples
+
+##### Service units
+
+Collect state of all service type units.

+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Debug Mode
+
+To troubleshoot issues with the `systemdunits` collector, run the `go.d.plugin` with the debug option enabled. The output
+should give you clues as to why the collector isn't working.
+
+- Navigate to the `plugins.d` directory, usually at `/usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/`. If that's not the case on
+ your system, open `netdata.conf` and look for the `plugins` setting under `[directories]`.
+
+ ```bash
+ cd /usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/
+ ```
+
+- Switch to the `netdata` user.
+
+ ```bash
+ sudo -u netdata -s
+ ```
+
+- Run the `go.d.plugin` to debug the collector:
+
+ ```bash
+ ./go.d.plugin -d -m systemdunits
+ ```
+
+
